Mumbai: Airtel Digital TV, a leading DTH service provider in India today announced a unique content partnership with EPIC ON – India’s Storytellers, a premium OTT platform by IN10 Media Network. As part of this partnership, Airtel digital TV will bring the timeless nostalgic series of Malgudi Days to over 16million homes across the country.

Based on several heart-warming short stories by RK Narayan, Malgudi Days series is about a bunch of characters leading simple lives in a fictitious small town called Malgudi. The plots revolve around the trials and tribulations faced by the lead character Swami and his friends. Malgudi Days was the first telecast on the national television in 1986 and became an integral part of the lives of Indians who grew up during that period. Directed by Shankar Nag, the series features the then famous child actor Master Manjunath and other acclaimed actors including Girish Karnad, Vaishali Kasaravalli, Ananth Nag, and Arundhati Nag. The stories of Malgudi Days evoke a feeling of nostalgia as well as have strong resonance among audiences who enjoy simple and powerful storytelling.

Airtel digital TV customers will now be able to experience the magic of this 80’s classic at leisure on channel no 102. Airtel has introduced this series with unique options with which customers can binge-watch the series by playing the episodes back to back or at a dedicated time every day like they catch up on their regular TV shows.
